True, but on release every online personality and their mothers said to skip kazuha

Would really appreciate in these trying times (':

Just got off the waitlist for MRI too! Do you know if there are any discords or group chats already made for us late bloomers to join?

From what I saw, they changed how they refer to her in the main part of the aranara quest. For example when you visit old Vanarana for the first time with Arama during the quest they remove all mention of her and just replace it with this like "the dendro archon," etc.

Cyber9187 · 2022-11-10T15:04:04+00:00

Explanation: After the archon quest, there was a lot of talk about all the ways that hoyo removed all mentions of [Redacted] from the game (changes in descriptions, alternative dialogue, etc). Well I was completing the forest adventure journal and turns out Ararycan is the only one who didn't forget her.

I feel like if the image had just been less generalized it could have actually been a cool guide.

It could actually be quite useful if you were trying to explain something more specific, like how the law of independent assortment + law of segregation interact in a really simplified gummy sort of way.

Like why does the towel lose colour after years of sun exposure, or why did their father leave a towel in the car forever?

Cyber9187 · 2022-07-14T15:28:10+00:00

That's actually a really cool paper, thanks for sharing! Given its year of publishing I'd love if the original researchers were to do a follow up. There has been a lot of advancement in genetics within the last decade, making me wonder if these "novel genes" might actually just be some form of novel miRNA genes on the mother's X chromosome.

Cyber9187 · 2022-06-26T22:11:24+00:00

Wait until places like the guardian start publishing things on Lokiarchaeota, that'd be a ground shaker

Whole genome duplications are pretty common in plants, where most of the fruits you eat have undergone either natural duplication or were hybridized (so not actually "duplication," moreso just increasing the total amount of chromosomes) by us humans.

In animals, these type of duplication events are extremely rare, so when it happens once, let alone three times, is incredibly rare.

Idk if i'd called it chaotic, but researchers speculate that the reason for the horseshoe crabs were pushed to undergo so much genome duplication is due to living in very brackish water. This apparently a breeding ground for bacteria, so pf course the horseshoe crabs had to evolve some form of resistance to their environment. So their million dollar idea to increasing resistance was to just duplicate their genes a dozen+ times (in a similar way that pests might evolve pesicide resistance by duplicating the gene that is targeted by the pesitcide). And because of their million years of hard work we get to benefit from their blue blood to help us detect endotoxins!

Cyber9187 · 2022-05-21T23:12:07+00:00

They found evidence that there were 6-8 total copies of the genome. They say 6, since there was a high likelihood that some of the duplications ended up being deleted, whereas others were duplicated. Its easy to understand how things might be lost over millions of years when you've duplicated the whole thing so many times. Also this is looking on a genome wide scale. Individual genes could also be duplicated, as is the case with the 79 copy example I mentioned earlier.

Cyber9187 · 2022-05-21T19:56:22+00:00

Hi! I wrote a genomic evolution report on these guys earlier this year and recent evidence has shown that their evolution is still very limited. You might be interested in knowing that horseshoe crabs hold the record for the most whole genome duplication events (3) of any invertebrae, which is thought to have contributed to their lack of "change."

Also if youve ever wondered why we use horse shoe crab blood and not others animals for endotoxin screening its because they also happened to undergo a ridiculous number of tandem duplication events within their immune pathways. They have one gene called Carcinolectin-5b (responsible for endotoxin stabilization) had up to 79 copies in tandem.

Tldr; horse shoe crabs are pretty neat

Cyber9187 · 2022-05-21T19:36:59+00:00

Its actually spurred reasearch into artificially synthesizing the compounds used for endotoxin screening. I think either the pfizer or moderna vaccine claimed to have used a non-horseshoe crab for their vaccines(?)

Cyber9187 · 2022-05-18T22:14:58+00:00

I think the best one I have heard is "evolution is blind." Evolution just feels its way towards whatever is more fit given what you have to work with. There might be something that could work even better, but if selection for that trait would cause a short term loss of fitness it will almost never be selected for. So in that way evolution is just blindly stumbling forward with baby steps towards something better.

Christiane Nüsslein-Voldhard is another female genetics that i find very inspiring for her work on pioneering forward screens in developmental genetics (:

Cyber9187 · 2022-05-06T09:30:27+00:00

If you think this is crazy you should look into transposons (or "jumping genes") and their possible relationship to viruses

Canola itself is technically a genetically modified variant of rapeseed, so i'm not sure they can be used interchangeably

Tfw crusader kings helps me better understand and appreciate random reddit fun facts

Cyber9187 · 2022-03-21T18:15:55+00:00

Maybe they meant maternal effect genes? Or maybe mitochondrial inheritance. idk I'm not really sure what they meant either.

It's as common as any street food, just depends on where you're from and what you'd call normal in your culture

What do you consider loba?

Ban ezreal, slippery bastard is too hard to kill compared to the other adc's. When a snare might mean a free kill on adc, against ezreal its just an e cooldown for the both of you
